Exceprts

From a book i really enjoyed reading:

“But even after her words were folded and put to one side, they would continue staring at each other in the knowledge that the endurers of a common fate have an association that outlives calamity and joy, strengthens over time, and deepens into a clarity that allows them to accept that love was nothing but the fragile excuse that enjoined them in the first place, and that after its cessation, after the haunting emptiness of its passing, this silence they were now sharing was, in fact, nothing short of divine eloquence.”


"There are mercies in this life so small and humble that they would
break you more easily than the cruelties ever would."

- The Last Song of Dusk by Siddharth Dhanvant Shanghvi
